Pasi A. Jänne, MD, PhD, medical oncologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and principal investigator for the FLAURA2 trial, said: “Patients received nearly nine additional months before their EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer progressed as a result of the addition of chemotherapy to standard-of-care osimertinib, building on the strong efficacy we have already seen with osimertinib monotherapy. With these convincing data, patients may soon have a choice of two highly effective osimertinib-based treatment options in this advanced disease setting.”
